Money Motivates People More Than Any Other Factor at the Work Place

By all means yes, money definitely plays a major part in motivating human resource, as far as motivation factor is concerned, that too in the work place. It is only the need for the money, that makes people work, either it be for a thousand rupees or lakhs or corers, quantity doesn’t matter, but it is THE motivating factor. If there is plenty and more than sufficient any one would hardly want to work.

It is definitely a point that, there are other factors such as, you feel proud when you work for a reputed company, you feel better at place where the work environment is better, your chest would go wide, when you know, you are working for a great or noble or innovative cause, but, when you don’t have enough to meet your needs, you definitely give priority to money first and work at a place, where you are paid more.

So, it would not be wrong to say, that money definitely becomes the first priority and is the motivating factor to work, People pay more attention to work when their needs are met and when they are comfortable, they have a sense of commitment, when they know that the company they are working for bothers about them and their needs, they develop a sense of respect and love towards such a organization or company or people they are working for.

So, money is the motivating factor at the work place and has a lot of influence on the people who are working.

Personal development, family, time with friends ,to name a few, have taken a solid place in people’s lives and an employee will be hardly motivated to put them aside in favour of work and little extra money. A survey conducted by PHD Robert Nelson of about 1500 employees from several industries with the aim of finding out what were the things that they most valued and motivated them in the workplace must have had shocking revelations for the “ carrot and stick “ kind of managers. The survey did in fact found that a Learning activity was ranked 1st, Flexible hours 2nd,Personal Praise from their managers 3rd, Authority and Autonomy 4th &5th, time with their manager 6th......money actually only ranked 13th

...How to MotivatePeople in Boring Jobs
People working in mundane jobs can easily become bored and less productive the longer they remain in their positions. Motivating these workers requires a commitment to creating opportunities for advancement and an atmosphere that allows workers to feel valued for their contributions -- no matter their roles.
Instructions
1. Encourage your employees every day. Set daily, attainable goals and acknowledge them with praise, and rewards, when they reach those goals.
2. Make sure that employees are getting breaks. Boring work can make employees tired. Multiple breaks allow them the time they need to stretch their legs and their mind.
3. Address your employees by name. Let them know they are not just cogs in a wheel. Remember, without them you, as a manager, can achieve nothing. Be sure they know this by what you say and how you conduct yourself. Create a culture where the employees feel respected needed, despite their position on the totem pole.
4. Put yourself at work when the early or late shift employees are working, if possible. Provide positive feedback at that time on what they have accomplished. Ask them how they think things are progressing with their project or task
5. Ask workers what they want during their performance appraisals. A performance appraisal is a powerful tool for the employer and the employee. It gives the employer the...

...goals and implementation objectives for management of the Sudbury watershed
lands during the period covered by the plan. These principles are distilled from a literature review of
nearly 400 different sources, many of which are included in the Literature Cited listing at the back of this
plan.
3.1
Principles of Watershed Protection
•
Forested watersheds generally yield higher quality water than non-forested cover types. Urban,
suburban and agricultural land uses all contribute in some way to lowered water quality.
•
Uncontrolled human activities on water supply watersheds represent a major source of potential
contamination. Efficient and effective water quality protection on both filtered and unfiltered
water supplies requires control over human activities.
•
Watershed cover conditions differ in their regulation of certain nutrients (especially phosphorus
and nitrogen); the best regulation of nutrients is provided by vigorously growing forest that is
fully occupying all watershed sites.
•
Fire protection, police surveillance, water sampling, and other watershed management activities,
including forest management, all depend upon an adequate, well-maintained road system.
•
The proper management and protection of wetland and riparian zones is a critical component of
watershed protection.

...Health MoreThanAnyOtherFactor
Lifestyle choices such as diet, smoking or alcohol, and exercise can have lasting effects on an individual’s health. However, some choices can be determined by the environment or socioeconomic status, and some health issues are totally unrelated to an individual’s lifestyle. Therefore, it is debatable whether someone’s lifestyle choices limit good health morethananyotherfactor.
Poor diet and lack of exercise are contributing factors to ill health in the UK. The Scottish diet has been identified as particularly poor, it is high in salt, sugar and fat, and low in fresh fruit and vegetables. Neither women nor men meet the recommended levels of exercise; only 33% of women and 45% of men meet the recommended levels of exercise. It is therefore not surprising that 59% of Scottish women and 69% or Scottish men are overweight and it is also not surprising that Scotland suffers from very high levels of weigh-related health problems, from diabetes to cancer. This suggests that the choices that we make about what we eat are impacting on the nation’s health to a great degree.
In addition, habits such as smoking certainly do have a connection with ill health. Smoking is a known cause of 25 serious diseases, including lung cancer, heart disease and respiratory problems. One in every four Scottish...

Bullying in the workplace
Social Psychology
Wanda Williams
DR Evans
The term workplace Bullying did not reach the United States until the late 1990's. The husband and wife team Dr's Gary and Ruth Namie both trained in Psychology introduced workplace bullying. You may ask what WorkPlace Bullying is. WorkPlace Bullying has many different definitions but the most common one. It is constant ill-treatment of one employee who is under attack by one or more employees with a mean mix of humiliation, intimidation and damage of performance. It includes being ridiculed in the presence of other employees, being lied about to others. You always have that feeling being on guards at all times. Not being able to focus on work task, loss of self-confidence on the job, out of control an anxiety, being continually left out of the loop, continually being criticized for no reason at all. WorkPlace bullies use their authority to undermine, frighten, or intimidate another person, often leaving the victim feeling fearful, powerless, incompetent, and ashamed.

...and being able to effectively remember and recall them isn’t being educated. To be educated is being able to make your own decisions and form your own opinions about things. It is the imparting of skills that enable you to succeed in any field of human endeavor and make your original contribution. What good education requires is a one-to-one interaction between a good teacher and student.
There are two factors of education which must mold two different aspects of the human psyche – one is analytical intelligence and the other is emotional intelligence. The former deals with the ability to solve technical problems while the latter deals with the ability to empathize, communicate, connect with our fellow human beings. A wholesome education system must educate both these facets of the human psyche to mold a character with all the abilities required to live a happy and successful life.
Why is Education the Key to Success?
Man is what his thoughts make him. Education provides direction to these thoughts. Success is morethan just accumulation of material wealth. I believe that success is not a destination but a never ending journey in self exploration. It is unlocking your true potential to make your life itself a work of art. Success has morethan one dimensions to it. Acquiring material wealth is not the only one. To what degree have you conquered your self and...

...“Why do some people get paid morethanothers?”
Pay in the private sector is a matter of demand and supply, sometimes influenced by market imperfections. In the public sector the picture is less clear cut, but the public sector must be considered if only because in so many countries it is such a major employer. (It would be a big mistake to assume that MRP doesn’t affect the public sector just because it doesn’t exist in most of the public sector. Since public sector employees have alternative work available in the private sector then what they could have earned in such an alternative job will influence how much they will have to be paid to be attracted to the public sector. The most obvious example of this idea at work is the pay of Ministers, but teachers are also a good example.)
This ‘essay’ sets out to examine what labour demand and supply influences exist, and how their influence may be distorted or limited by non-market factors. In particular it aims to demonstrate which labour market conditions are necessary for high wages, and which are sufficient.
In most cases the conditions are neither necessary nor sufficient.
Turning first to demand for labour. Without high marginal revenue product (MRP) no profit maximising private sector firm will pay high wages (note wage=AWC, which is less than or equal to MWC)), since it aims to make MRP=MWC. If MRP...

...some places suffer morethanothers?
Whilst earthquakes are perhaps the most frequently occurring natural hazard, their impact on people, property and communities varies enormously from one place to another. It is possible to identify a number of factors that cause some places to suffer morethanothers. Whilst some are large scale and are to do with tectonic location, others are decided at a much more local scale, and relate to building design and levels of preparedness.
Perhaps the most significant factor determining why some places suffer morethanothers is the tectonic location of an area. The distribution of earthquakes is commonly linked to the margins of global plates. Whilst the assertion that earthquakes only occur at plate margins is broadly true, it would be overly simplistic to assume that earthquakes are more common, and more devastating at some margins than at others. Yet it remains apparent that most earthquakes do coincide with the major plate margins, although a smaller number do occur away from plate boundaries. Generally speaking, earthquakes at destructive plate margins have a greater spread, and therefore affect more...
